carl, what about a new shiny/remanufactured block through morries....I heard they are in the $600 area.....IIRC
if worst comes to worst, can you guys at morries work up a price for me on new/re manufactured parts - I basically need everything on the bottom end except for pistons.
well I don't need the pistons so there's maybe some savings there (or maybe not) hopefully I can find some good condition used stuff soon - I only need this motor for maybe 12 races... don't want to put a ton of money into it
For a NEW 05 EJ253 shortblock its around 1694. Which is just block, pistons, rods, and crank. No oil pump and no water pump IIRC.
Well i have the blown 2.5 (rod bearing), bilkface has a good crank, maybe you wanna put something together? Oh and ide let it go for the price of my sat-sun ice races stay....
Well mine has an oil pump and water pump still, All i need off of it is the heads and intake. so there will be lots of extras.
it sounds like you have this situation all figured out guys. but your comment reminds me of this: ksrythxbai
